Educational, clean, well kept, pleasant attendant, historic, proof of the Railroad being the backbone of USA
I rode this track 50 years ago to Chicago to enter the US Marine Corps. It brought back memories.
I was in Chillicothe waiting for my girlfriend to get home from a business trip so I went over to the Rock Island Railroad Museum to look it over. A gentleman in a car pulled up and asked me if I'd like a tour of the Museum. I responded sure and the gentleman introduced himself as Gary Fyke and he then spent the next hour giving me a personal tour of the Museum and explaining it's history. There are many interesting artifacts in and around the Museum. The Museum is lucky to have someone as friendly to the public and as dedicated to the Museum as Mr Fyke. If you're a train enthusiast or just interested in history, I would highly recommend going to the Museum on tour days. It's a very interesting tour and Chillicothe is a friendly town.
Cool little place
